Closing Thoughts

Both themes came back after a break: Securities Brokers after 24 days and Banks after 48 days. Each run has lasted 1 day so far, so the next sessions will show whether it continues.

Breadth is another thing to follow, with 5 of 5 brokers and 4 of 4 banks rising. The next data point is whether gains stay this evenly spread across both groups.
